LastPass is still behind TMobile on breach frequency, but maybe they will catch up soon.

Covered in Chris Voss book Never Split the Difference. Works well in practice based on my own personal experiences.

I hope a family-level AI appliance is a thing later. Local non-cloud assistant that lives in the house, families interact via voice or phones or whatever. Knows the contextual family stuff you need, etc.

Check out vMLX if you use Apple Silicon. https://github.com/jjang-ai/mlxstudio

I think the idea is crash the stock market to force interest rate drop to refinance the massive debt.

Same. Have had great results with it. I got sick of paying FreshBooks monthly for basic income/expense tracking for Schedule C reporting and used GSD to build a macOS Swift app with Codex 5.4 and Opus 4.6. It’s working great and I am considering releasing it on the App Store. It started as a web app, but then I wanted screen capture from other windows for receipts in email or whatever. Then I wanted physical receipts, and so used Apple continuity camera. All working now in my app. And, I just added receipt auto-extract to pull salient info from and determine deduction category using Anthropic API.

Yes this is how much paying FreshBooks annoyed me. Plus I hated they forced an emailed 2FA if you didn’t connect with Google.

Copy/paste it into your CrapBot of choice and respond with even longer sloppy pasta. Just do that every time and make sure it’s longer than their original message. Maybe slam in some Socratic method questions and theory to wander through the response for awhile. Ensure it creates action items only they can perform and make sure the ball is in their court each time. I should make a skill for this.

What could go wrong. Someone is going to wake up to a bankruptcy inducing Amazon bill.

You lay not travel much where opening a 16” MacBook Pro even in economy plus is a lean back risk and typing misery situation. iPad much better for tray table things. I have the 11” just for this purpose

FFS I cannot believe this. I went and looked it up, and you’re 100% right. It’s slight, but it’s real.

Really enjoyed this show. Not sure why it is so unknown. Highly recommend.

Personal experience says otherwise. Low carb/slow carb diet plus fasting 100% did it for me. 40 lbs gone, and have kept it off even while backing off of the initial rigidity. Everything in moderation, especially alcohol. Beer is a huge carb load, so that had to go entirely. Pasta as well. Potatoes too. Sure, I have a couple fries (or chippies for the BBC crew), but it’s all about those being scarce. It’s actually pretty easy to intermittent fast. Eat dinner and be done before 8pm and have lunch around 1pm the next day. Have coffee or tea in the morning.

What really accelerated weight loss for me was extremely rigid ketogenesis. Felt amazingly sharp and dialed in every morning, slept well, shredded pounds.

I’m probably on the list. I made a LinkedIn Redactor that allowed you to add keywords and remove posts from your thread that included such words. It’s the X feature but for LinkedIn. Anyway, got a cease and desist from those lame fucks at LI. So I removed from the chrome store but it’s still available on GitHub.

Also curious about this. Just need real time German to English. What does this?

Same question. This is a massive undertaking to do well, and incumbents Lexis and Westlaw gate API behind their own crappy agent. Unsure about vLex or Bloomberg. What’s the scope? U.S. Federal? State? Administrative hearings?

Part of the value of the incumbents are the case treatment (Sheparidizing) and case issue categories. The world is due for a disruptor, but sadly court data is terrible to get. Bad formats, paygates, slow publishing times, and in some cases physically going to the courthouses

I just quit reading any articles from this site. They are so obviously biased it’s obnoxious. I wonder who is paying them.

I’m so sick of “10x” everything. It’s almost always grossly overstated marketing bullshit. There are a lot more precise x’s, but everyone just rounds up and snaps to 10x. And the numbers aren’t even really ever truly measured. Thumb in the wind.

Ads should 100% subsidize free tiers, just like every other “free” service. They are running this at a deficit, no?

I encountered this issue this week. Went to Logitech website, downloaded patch, installed. Round trip less than 2 minutes. Really not a big deal .

Wait, then who will the Boomers unload their overpriced real estate to?

Do we think news outlets owned by the government or the “warm collective” would be any better at unbiased reporting or not disseminating fake news or unjust influence? Is there any organization or entity structure today that is trustworthy enough to even handle those sorts of organizations. It appears fraud is rampant in our government, so why trust them any more than some random dude? Frankly it seems the odds might be better with one random guy not being on the take.

It’s a bit amusing seeing ediscovery principles go mainstream.

Gotta hand it to Rivian. Solid progress. Not having those features is why I didn’t buy one before. These advances make it a bit more attractive.

What about all the AI meeting recording bots that are constantly joining meetings (sometimes even privileged communications in legal matters) or those where two party consent isn’t given? It seems like just nobody cares that this is an issue and it’s becoming acceptable to just violate confidentiality, privilege, and recording laws because “convenience.”

I can’t even use Paramount+ at home. Have network wide ad and tracking filters on (simple NextDNS presets, nothing crazy), and while others work, Paramount+ doesn’t. Makes me wonder what they are doing to get blocked. Kind of wish neither were getting WB.

Do you think they currently exist to prioritize AI safety? That shit won’t pay the bills, will it? Then they don’t exist. Goals are nice, OKRs yay, but at the end of the day, we all know the dollar drives everything.

Now you just need to add a judge node that compares the responses, fact checks them, and outputs the best response of the three. Although this makes another issue of which model is that judge.

Was hoping to see cross platform copy/paste.

Did they just make us all human web scrapers?

China has trade leverage. EU is not negotiating from a position of strength.
